Road and transport: Moving towards annuity based projects<br />
According to Crisil, over the next five years, investment in the roads sector<br />
is expected to increase at a CAGR of 24%. During this period, it is expected<br />
that investments amounting to US$19 billion would be incurred on roads<br />
related projects. Private investment is expected to bring in US$1.8 billion<br />
as an equity component in respect of the NHAI BOT projects that are<br />
expected to be awarded in the next five years.<br />
<strong>Patel</strong> has a considerable experience in various segments in building<br />
highways, tunnels and flyovers. Recently it has started focusing on annuity<br />
projects and BOT projects, whereas earlier it was focusing on cash<br />
projects. This move will provide a lot of stability towards the cash flows<br />
and thus will give impetus to the company for future projects.<br />
<strong>Patel</strong> currently has two projects underway which are on annuity based and<br />
these projects are low risk as the company is assured of fixed annuity<br />
payment irrespective of the traffic movement and toll collection. These<br />
projects will provide the stability to the cash flows. In this case, the only<br />
drawback is that the margins are on the lower side.<br />
